RNA polymerase III (RNAP III) synthetizes small essential non-coding RNA molecules such as tRNAs and 5S rRNA. In yeast and vertebrates, RNAP III needs general transcription factors TFIIIA, TFIIIB and TFIIIC to initiate transcription. TFIIIC, composed of six subunits, binds to internal promoter eleme...
